Notice of the difference between the forecast and actual consolidated results for the second quarter (interim period) of the fiscal year ending March 2027 and revisions to the full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027

For the second quarter (interim period) of the fiscal year ending March 2027, actual revenue and profit fell below the previous forecasts. In addition, after factoring in the impact of the 2026 Kumamoto earthquake, among other factors, the Company lowered its full-year forecasts, cutting operating profit from a forecast of a profit to ¥100 million and net income attributable to owners of the parent from ¥300 million to a loss of ¥2 billion.

Dividend forecast revision

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The interim-period forecast shortfall was attributable to 西日本熊本工場 and 西鋼物流株式会社 being damaged by the 2026 Kumamoto earthquake, the resulting loss being recorded as an extraordinary loss, and a foreign exchange loss being recorded due to currency movements. For the full year, the Company expects the earthquake's effects on production and shipments, among other areas, to continue into the second half, and also expects fluctuations in inventory valuation differences.
